Vulnerability of dynamic genetic conservation units of forest trees in Europe to climate change

Approaches to the conservation of forest genetic resources in Europe in the context of climate change

Adaptation of forest trees to climate change

There is an urgent need to determine the adaptive potential of forest trees given their importance in ecosystem functioning and the associated ecological and economic services they provide. Indeed, underestimating rapid adaptation could lead to unnecessary recommendations such as the use of non-native (and perhaps non-adapted) genetic material for reforestation. Overestimating adaptive potentia...

a synchronic and diachronic approach to the change route of address terms in the two recent centuries of persian language

terms of address as an important linguistics items provide valuable information about the interlocutors, their relationship and their circumstances. this study was done to investigate the change route of persian address terms in the two recent centuries including three historical periods of qajar, pahlavi and after the islamic revolution. data were extracted from a corpus consisting 24 novels w...

Genetic diversity and conservation of forest trees in Thailand

In Thailand many economically important species are under threat due to human pressure and overexploitation. Therefore, understanding of the status of genetic resource of forest trees is imperative before any forest gene conservation can be designed. One of the fundamental requirements for conservation and use of forest tree genetic resources is understanding the biological dynamics of genetic ...
